Re: Proper way to represent a NULL (no entries) CRL?

To encode a SEQUENCE of zero length is incorrect.


However, the ASN.1 syntax specifies a SEQUENCE OF which may contain
zero or more items, so I don't see why the empty SEQUENCE OF is
illegal.

The fact that it is OPTIONAL is irrelevant.  The ambiguity is in
the grammar, not in the DER coding...
